Keynote Speaker for Professional Women

Instructor: Rebecca Rivers, Certified Svaroopa Yoga Instructor

Discover how easy it is to use yoga's ancient tools to enhance your health and well-being in the midst of your busy life. In this workshop, we will explore a series of "yoga bits", or mini-practices for home or workplace, all without a lot of time investment or specialized equipment. These practices are appropriate for all body types and fitness levels, and can be adapted for those with a variety of health conditions (notifying the instructor of these prior to the workshop would be helpful)

This event will “kick-off” our 2018-19 professional women’s programming series. Learn more about networking opportunities WLI offers professional women of the North Country throughout the year as well as ways to get involved in our organization.
